"It's okay. I checked in Xincheng before I came here, and she is pregnant."
Jiang Hai was stunned when he heard this.
“This…this…”
He stuttered instantly, and Young Master Jiang's brain short-circuited. This was the rhythm of him becoming a father.
Some were at a loss, some were excited, some were thrilled, and their expressions were very wonderful.
He was a single guy before he came here, but now he is going to be a father. He was a little excited for a while, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I didn’t know what to say, so I just went forward and hugged my wife tightly, my hands shaking a little.
"It's my fault for being too greedy. The roast duck was a bit too greasy." Yuchi Ziling said softly.
Her excitement had passed, and seeing that Jiang Hai was speechless, she spoke.
"No, no, no, how can I blame you? Let's blame the roast duck. It's its problem." Jiang Hai said with a silly smile.
Upon hearing this, Yuchi Ziling also laughed and looked up at Jiang Hai.
When their eyes met, they both saw each other. A knowing smile filled their hearts with warmth.
After standing for a while, the two continued walking back.
Jiang Hai laughed foolishly all the way. I'm going to have a baby. When I get angry with my cheap dad in the future, I can beat his grandson.
Seeing Jiang Hai's happy expression, Yuchi Ziling's smile became a little sweeter.
However, she had no idea about Jiang Hai's weird idea.
After walking for a while, Jiang Hai calmed down, his brain circuit connected, and then he said,
"That's not right. Why are you running here when you're already pregnant? Just stay at home and take good care of your baby."
"It's okay. The road isn't bumpy now. I just wanted to come over and tell you."
"Okay, but I can't take you with me to the Northern Expedition. Otherwise, I won't go either." Jiang Hai felt that it was okay for him not to go.
"There's no need for that. Just go if you need to and take care of yourself. I just wanted to tell you and see you off before I go back."
Hearing her say this, Jiang Hai thought about it for a moment and decided that it was okay. If he went out with the army, it shouldn't take long.
When I come back, I can still catch up with the birth of my baby.
My wife stays at home, and my stepfather and stepmother will definitely take good care of her.
"Okay." Jiang Hai nodded and tightened his grip on her hand.
Walking on the road in the moonlight, there is a slight chill in Yuezhou's late autumn, but it is not cold.
Return to the palace.
Before taking a break, Jiang Hai saw his wife still rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, so he asked,
"Madam, are you looking for something? Just let Cai'er find it for you."
"Haha, no, I'm preparing some clothes for you. You've never lived in the north in winter, and I was afraid you forgot to bring them." Yuchi Ziling said as she packed.
He also brought some clothes with him when he came from Xincheng. He is now packing them together with the clothes he has here and packing them into boxes to take them away with the army.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Hai felt warm in his heart and stood up to help clean up.
"Don't do any heavy lifting in the future, please be careful."
Jiang Hai gave some instructions and moved the packed box to the door, waiting for Wenzhi to come and take it away for him tomorrow.
"Yes, I know."
After packing up, they closed the door and went to rest. They talked for a long time before falling asleep. Thinking about becoming parents soon, they both found it difficult to fall asleep.
…
Two days later.
The north gate of Yuezhou City.
The army assembled, and the first batch of 40,000 troops prepared to go to the Canglan River to join the troops of Guo Hao and Wu Gong on the front line.
By then, the first group of troops crossing the river would number one hundred thousand.
Yang Hongjin also joined the army in crossing the river to the north.
Jiang Hai led the 10,000-strong Xincheng Corps among the troops heading out for the expedition.
All four leaders of the Qin family went out.
Flags are waving, morale is high, and drums are beating, resounding through the sky.
Just before leaving, a white horse rushed out of the city gate and joined Jiang Hai.
Jiang Hai looked closely and saw Bai Ma Baojian holding the reins with one hand, appearing in such a pretentious manner.
It was Dugu Qiu, this guy had been in the new city for a long time.
Apart from occasionally teaching classes in the military camp, he spent most of his time wandering around the city at ease.
"Old Qiu, why are you here too?" Jiang Hai was a little surprised and did not ask him to join the army.
"The young lady asked me to keep an eye on you." The old man pulled the reins and spoke.
Jiang Hai nodded when he heard this and turned to look at the crowd at the city gate who were seeing him off.
I saw my wife in the crowd at a glance.
The distance was a bit far, but Jiang Hai smiled and raised his hand to wave at her.
Yuchi Ziling also raised her hand in response, her hair dancing in the morning breeze, her beautiful eyes sparkling with light.
A moment later.
The horn sounded and the army set out.
The sound of horses' hooves, the clatter of cart wheels, and the cadence of orderly footsteps could be heard one after another. Teams formed up one after another, like a long dragon, and set out on their journey northward.
Looking back again, Jiang Hai also joined the team and joined the army heading north with a few people around him.
…
After seeing Jiang Hai off, Yuchi Ziling also said goodbye to her sister and others and prepared to return to Xincheng.
The one who escorted them here this time was Wang Lue.
Wang Lue rarely left Xincheng, but Yuchi Ziling didn't plan to stay long in Yuezhou this time.
He asked Wang Lue to bring some people from the Xincheng government office to see him off.
Wang Lue acted as a temporary groom and led the team out of Yuezhou and headed towards Xincheng.
Seeing Yuchi Ziling's worried look when she got into the car, Wang Lue comforted her.
"Don't worry, Madam. The veterans of the Legion are almost out in full force this time. The Northern Imperial Court's minnows won't be able to stop them."
"Well, thank you, Wang Lue, you've worked hard."
Wang Lue smiled and said it was okay, then continued riding forward.
The wheels turned rapidly, passing through the newly built flat road.
On the other side, the army was marching very fast. Compared with the previous roads, the roads in the south were much better now.
In less than half a month, the army arrived at the Canglan River and successfully joined forces.
It takes so much time because it is a large army with infantry. If it were all cavalry, it would arrive in a few days.
Most of Guo Hao's front-line troops were stationed in Kanghe Province.
During this period, the troops previously assigned to the surrounding state cities were also gathered back to prepare to cross the river together.
For a while, military tents were everywhere along the confluence of the Cam River and the Canglan River in Cam Province.
Inside the big tent, they were discussing the plan to cross the river, and the place they were going to cross the river was the border of Longfeng Prefecture on the opposite bank.
After receiving instructions from Yuezhou, an advance team had already reached the other side to investigate the situation.
It was Cao Yuan and others who led several small teams. A few days ago, they disguised themselves as ordinary people and crossed the river to check the enemy scouts placed around.
The imperial army was not stationed here, but to be on the safe side, Guo Hao and Wu Gong discussed and decided to send someone to investigate first.
"They should be back in the next two days." Wu Gong said.
"If there's no problem, we can just cross the river and land, then quickly head to Longfeng City from this road."
"That's right, the other side has already secretly sent people to surrender. At present, the most trustworthy one is this state capital." Guo Hao took over the conversation.
They were the ones who had sent someone to inform us that the imperial army had secretly moved troops upstream to cross the river.
